Stalking Out His Claim.
From tie New York Tribune


A slim young man was perched on stool
in one of the large restaurants devouring a
strawberry dumping. The capacity of the
restaurant was not sufficient for the rush of
customers, and behind the fortunate posses
sors of stools formed another line of hungry
candidates giaring over the shoulders of the
eaters, and watching each mouthful disaD-
pear. Behind the slim young man, how
ever, four hungry eyes watched the vanish
ing fragments of strawberry dumping.
There Were two contestants for the seat. a
corpulent old person in Spectacles and tall
man with silk hat.
The slim young man completing his lunch
climbed down from his perch, and the cor
pu4edc watcher, with great activity, began
to climb up.
Hold on" said the other candidate
gruffly.
What forf'
because, sir, l have right to the seat.
| was here, sir, when that young man began
to eat his dumping. Perhaps" added the
tall man scornfully you think / have
been standing here just to count how
many mouthfuls there are in a strawberry
dumpling."
The elderly man laid his hand on the
stool and said with the confident air of one
who holds four aces, II am very sorry sir.
but you really have no claim at ALL | was
here when this young man was unable to de-
eide whether he wanted strawberry dump
ling or custard pie
And then the corpulent old man, having
''seen" the tall man and gone him one bet
ter, climbed upon the stool, and his rival
moved sadly alone TO stake out another
claim on man who had just ordered sh
balls with tomato sauce.

The Daily National Hotel Reporter con-
tanned the following in its issue of the 18th
inst The prospects are good for a prosperous
winter season among Florida hotels. The
resorts in Florida, Georgia and South Caro-
lima are so much more accessible than those
of California that the former will always
control the greatest portion of winter pleas
ure travel. This year it will be possible to
reach Florida from New York much more
quickly and agreeably than ever before
After the hottest campaign on record, the
vote was taken in Nashville Thursday, on
the proposition to subscribe 100000 to the
Tennessee Midland Railroad Company
and was defeated by few votes. Five
country districts are not heard from, but
it is not expected that the majority is suffi-
cent to carry the proposition.
Under the State law it requires three
fourths of the total vote cast to carry the
subscription, and the vote, as far as report
ed, stands for the subscription ~ 97l against
4,507 The total vote in the county is the
heaviest on record by 1000 or 5000, due TO
the fact that employees of the Louisville and
Nashville system and the Nashville and
Chattanooga road came in by car loads and
voted. Negro road hands from Birming-
ham from the Chattanooga road down as
far as Bridgeport, and from the Louisville
charged that these were voted against the
proposition. There was no bloodshed, but
good many little fights, and the day was

THE TOWN OF POOLER.

It's Future as Suburb of Georgia's
Commercial Metropolis
Pooer, the first station on the Central
railroad. is ten miles from Savannah. 1t
is as old as that corporation, and was named
after the late Capt. r. w. Pooler, promi-
nent resident of this city, and one of the
projectors of the then infant enterprise 1t
probably had as many other railroad sta
tions have had great expectations 1t is
possible that it might have had what is now
called "boom," but as far back as the
memory Of the generation of the living
goes 'Pooler" has been nothing, but
Station No. 1, Central railroad. 1t has,
however, within the past year or two taken
a start, and bids fair to be quite a town.
Sixteen houses have been built in the last
three months, one of which is a two-story
school house. The latter is to be furnished
with three teachers by the Board of Educa-
ton of Chatham county, and will be under
its control
Pooler has a Masonic lodge, known as
Turner Lodge U. d. Its cotton receipts
SO far this year have been one bale.
There was no rejoicing, however, of its
arrival, except with the farmer who raised
it. He was about hauling it into Savannah
in his cart, as usual, but 1.-THE boys" were
anxious to give the town position in the
commercial world, so they got the farmer
to let it be shipped by rail and they paid the
freight
The principal advantages afforded to set
tiers in Pooler are large lots at low prices, a
healthy location and proximity to the city,
with the advantages of the country Like
Guyton, NARROW and Egypt, Pooler is des-
tined to become the residence of many peo-
pie who do business in Savannah.

Mercury Down Among the Sixties
An End to the Warm Spell
The storm of yesterday afternoon was
caused by low barometer area, which
moved down the coast, producing storms
in Georgia. The movement of this low area
from northeast TO southwest was contrary
to the usual direction that is taken by SINH
lar'areas. They generally move in the di-
rection exactly opposite. There was pretty
severe blow, too, during the Storm the wind
travelling at one time at the rate of Sc miles
an hour. The temperature fell from So to
90 those figures being the maximum and
minimum of temperature of the day.
The indications are for clear and cooler
weather to-day and probable continuance
of the cool weather for several days to come,
as the high barometer centre that was in
the northwest two days ago has moved
southeast, and is nowscentral over Kansas
and Missouri. Beginning at Leavenworth,
Kas, is line extending through Missouri
and Ohio, and all the stations on that line
reported a temperature OF ~ last night
The area is moving in this direction, and

Hungler Gets SuIky and is Knocked all
Over the Field.


New ORLEANS, LA, Sept. 23.-To-day'S
game started out like an even contest, but
the deadlock did not last long. Hungler
has become so accustomed 20 posing as the
great injured that he sulked when McVey
and Powell got bases on balls in the third,
and spluttered around the field looking for
sympathy from his nine, but got none
Campau then knocked the ball clean over
the right field fence, bringing in two, and
securing the third run, himself. This com
pletely broke Hunglers heart, and he was
an easy mark for the To-
Gals who pounded him all through
the game. Glenn and Earl did brilliant
work in his support, but the rest were not
so active.
Nicholas caught finely until the eighth,
when a terrific wild pitch disguised him,
and he allowed two runs to come in on it.
Powell publicly reprimanded him. The
visitors could DO nothing with Ewing, and
ne received fine support all around.
Bradley's two errors, the only made by
New Orleans, were not costly and the team
played great ball in every department. The
score by innings is as follows:
Charleston. 81. 0 0 0 0 0 o. 0

Nicholas.
